UNIVERSITY PARK, PA. -
Head coach James Franklin announced the members of his 2015 Leadership Council, which consists of 25 members of the Penn State football team, today. The Council, which is comprised of 13 seniors, five juniors, five sophomores and two freshmen, serves as the voice for the team.

"The Leadership Council is something that is very important to us. The Council gives the team a strong voice and an opportunity to positively influence change within the program," Franklin said. "This is a group of guys who bring a variety of different views to the table. We value their opinions and trust they will drive our program's culture and core values.

This group is not only charged with leading the team, but the expectation is to also uphold the program's four core values: positive attitude, great work ethic, competitive in everything and must be willing to sacrifice. The Leadership Council meets at least twice a month in Franklin's office.

Penn State concludes its spring practices with the Blue-White game on Saturday, April 18 at 4 p.m. Admission and game day parking are free.
